So now I might be able to help....
Change the last part to:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'/var' => [
'/lib/backuppc'
]
};
or
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'var' => [
'/lib/backuppc'
]
};
I'm not sure if the literal share name is needed or not. Of course, you
could use * and just fixup the directory to exclude, but that would also
exclude a directory called /home/lib/backuppc which in this instance
probably wouldn't matter (wouldn't happen) but with another example may
make a big difference....
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Adam
